Watch or Download The Kid 2000. Director Jon Turteltaub, Cast Bruce Willis, Spencer Breslin, Emily Mortimer,

Powerful businessman Russ Duritz is self-absorbed and immersed in his work. But by the magic of the moon, he meets Rusty, a chubby, charming 8-year-old version of himself who can't believe he could turn out so badly – with no life and no dog. With Rusty's help, Russ is able to reconcile the person he used to dream of being with the man he's actually become. Movie The Kid

MPAA Reason

Rated PG for mild language.

Sex & Nudity

none

Sex & Nudity Reason

While reluctantly visiting a psychiatrist, Russ mentions that he's not going to talk about the hypothetical example of seeing his mother naked in the shower. He then adds that among the many vices he does not have is possessing a closet full of ladies undergarments. He then goes on to talk about the guy in a plane he's seeing (to which she makes a note and he then clarifies that by saying it's not that kind of "seeing" - meaning a gay reference). We briefly see the black fiance in a bikini a couple times in a scene when they are eating pizza and he's teaching the boy to box.

Violence & Gore

none

Violence & Gore Reason

A bully pushes Rusty to the ground. Rusty then gets up and the bully punches him and then puts him in a headlock, eventually knocking him to the ground again. Rusty then gets up and the bully proceeds to punch his body some more until Rusty finally connects with two punches that send the bully to the ground (where Rusty briefly sits on his chest).

Profanity

mild

Profanity Reason

1 use of Damn At least 2 uses of "my God"

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

none

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking Reason

A woman asks for a single malt liquor while on a plane (but we don't see her receive or drink it).

Frightening & Intense Scenes

none

Frightening & Intense Scenes Reason

The confrontation between Rusty and his father over his mother's terminal illness may be upsetting for some viewers, particularly the closeup of his dad rubbing Rusty's eyes painfully. A scene where Russ slowly makes his way through his house, carrying a baseball bat after hearing what he thinks is an intruder, might be a tiny bit suspenseful to younger kids.
